The Line 22 Brown Project, a new subway line that will connect São Paulo to Cotia, is underway. Understand the current stage of this important urban mobility project in the metropolitan area of São Paulo.

The expansion of the subway network in São Paulo has as its next major step the implementation of Line 22 Brown. This project aims to connect the capital of São Paulo to the municipality of Cotia, covering a route of 29 km with 19 planned stations.

In May 2023, the São Paulo Metro hired the Sista Prime consortium to develop the engineering anteproject, architecture and geology of Line 22. The consortium, formed by the companies Sista (or Sistra) and Prime, has a deadline of 35 months to complete this work, extending until May 2026.

Next Steps

After the completion of the engineering anteproject, the São Paulo Metro will hire the basic project of the line. This phase is expected to begin in mid-2026 and, considering an average of two years for its completion, it is estimated that the essential studies for Line 22 will be finalized between 2028 and 2029. This indicates that the start of the actual project works may only occur at the end of the decade or at the beginning of the 2030s.

Future Projections

Based on the current progress and the planned steps, it is possible to foresee that Line 22 Brown may only be operational in mid-2040, if all processes occur as planned. This metro axis, starting at Sumaré station and passing through areas such as USP, neighborhoods in Osasco, and following the Raposo Tavares axis to Cotia, is a significant addition to the transport infrastructure of the region.

Line 22 is crucial for improving urban mobility between São Paulo and Cotia, an area with intense passenger flow. By providing a fast and efficient transportation alternative, the line will alleviate traffic on the roads and contribute to reducing pollution.

Official Perspective

The São Paulo Metro has not yet established an official deadline for the completion of Line 22. Currently, the institution is focused on developing the engineering anteproject and geology, a crucial stage for the advancement of the project.

Despite the long period projected until the complete operation of Line 22, it is important to recognize the advances in the expansion of São Paulo’s subway network. This line represents an important milestone in the development of urban mobility in the region, promising significant improvements in public transportation and the quality of life for citizens.

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

China transforms desert-devastated area into the world’s largest artificial forest, planting trees for 60 years, blocking sand that reached Beijing, and creating a “green lung” of 92,000 hectares in a region once considered lost.

Toyota launches “family hybrid van” with 7 or 8 seats, 1.8 hybrid engine, fuel consumption of up to 23.8 km/l, and a price equivalent to about R$ 104,000 without taxes, below the Tiggo 8 Pro Plug-in Hybrid sold in Brazil: meet the Noah Hybrid 2026 in Japan.

With 70 tons of rock removed by hand and an 800-year-old abandoned cave, a former businessman transforms a dark shelter into a modern home carved in the heart of the forest.

Scientists have created a material six times lighter than air, 75 times lighter than styrofoam, and that becomes stronger the more it is compressed: aerographite seems impossible, but it can reinforce structures, batteries, and satellites.

Giant earthquake returns to haunt California after study points out San Andreas and San Jacinto faults at highest stress level in 1,000 years, with risk involving Los Angeles and other populated areas.

Thinking about buying a used HB20? See why the 2015 model is still a crowd favorite, with cheap parts, easy-to-fix mechanics, a strong engine, and quick sales.

Anvisa reveals flaws in supplements from IDNLABS and suspends 11 batches that include creatine, BCAA, beta-alanine, and multivitamins; the measure affects products with quality, composition, and labeling issues, while consumers are advised to check the printed codes on the packaging.

Scientists have mapped for the first time the largest biological network on the planet, formed by underground fungi with an extension of 110 quadrillion km that transport 4 billion tons of CO₂ to the soil per year.
